And Susan herself, knitting off her yarn bracelet thingy…I don’t know what it is officially called, but she did get me one for my birthday, how cool is that? Susan is wearing the Kiwassa Shawl knit in Seattle Mightysock.

Both shawl patterns are by local designer, Chrissy Gardner, of Gardiner Yarn Works, and she also designed a new sock pattern for us to feature at the show…which I have yet to snap a photo of.

The yarn Susan is knitting with is a new colorway called “Mt Hood Rose” . Hopefully we’ll see more of this beautiful deep rose-magenta-purple-pink color!

The Big Event was when the Knitmore Girls showed up to hand out free swag bags! The lines were long. Susan handed out chocolates and business cards, I handed out bookmarks with Jasmine’s free hat pattern on them, and Gail socialized with the crowd.

Jasmin of Knitmore Girls was very sweet, gracious and kind to everybody alike, I can see why she and her mom together have such a following!
